Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we handle shower tray repair in Stow Hill
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and movement when you stand on it, across cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Common questions in Stow Hill
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Stow Hill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Stow Hill and the rest of Newport. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Stow Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What else we do in Stow Hill
Do you need shower tray repair in Stow Hill?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Stow Hill. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
